This was the final set of Spanish and bilingual story time programs for the fall season. Last year, only four people showed to the last Spanish story time (understandable, families travel during this time), but this year, a mom and two kids showed up after I started cleaning up at the 15-minute mark (storyTime starts at 6:15 p.m. sharp, and it was already 6:30 p.m.). Story time usually ends at 6:45-6:50 p.m.) I could have read a couple of stories, but by that time I was just plain tuckered out (my typical work day is 10-7:30/8 on Thursdays). On Saturday, a handful of people showed to bilingual story time, so I felt a lot better about my planning efforts.
This next December, since my programs are at the end of the week, I think I am going to suggest that Spanish story time should end the Thursday before the Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday English story times end, and that the Saturday bilingual story time end the Saturday before the English ones end as well. Mid-December are dismal months because of holiday traveling.
